SickleFlow 120 Any good?

I have the opportunity to get them at 5.44$ per fan. Worth it for five of them on my radiators vs their 4 pack of el-cheapos at $12?

They're designed as case fans you want specialized static pressure fans if you want to put them on a radiator

I remember them to be quite loud, but for the price I wouldn't expect much more from them. 

For a radiator they don't have a very good SP, so I wouldn't recommend it for that use.

I realize this. I have terrible no-name fans at the moment. I was planning on this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103052&cm_re=radiator_fan-_-35-103-052-_-Product

 

but then I saw that I can get the sickleflow fans for a decent price.

What is the size of the radiator and is it a CPU radiator?

Those fans look decent but they are only 3 pin connectors which means it won't have variable speed control based on RPM and temps you can only control 3pin through voltage

Would the TrueQuiet 120 be any better at 1,000 RPM as the sickleflow at 1,000RPM?

I have a custom loop. It has a triple and double 120mm rad for a 390x and i5 2500.

I have heard that the mounting ring on the sickel makes it unreliable when mounted at an angle (so not horizontally or vertically). He was a really knowledgeable friend so i never bothered to check out if thats the case. But worth noticing.

My Sickleflow fans whistle quite a bit when the RPM's come up, and using my fan controller they buzz whenever they aren't on the lowest or highest setting. They move a lot of air though, and if you can get them for a good price then go for 'em.

I ended up going for antec's twocool fans because 1200 RPM is enough for my needs and I have some similar fans that seem to push enough air through the rads. That and I got the fans for less than 5$ apiece
